Membership
Benefits
Membership of the three-year programme entitles young investigators to a
range of academic and practical benefits. In addition to a financial award
made available by the individual EMBC member states, EMBO also offers the
possibility of topping-up funds for scientists from regions where funding is more limited.
Programme Activities
The EMBO Young Investigator Programme offers its members valuable support
on a number of levels. A growing number of activities are offered, many
of which have been developed in line with the specific needs of the
young investigator membership. These activities are designed to put
a spotlight on the young scientists and enhance their prominence in
the scientific community by:
Networking
via an annual meeting and contact with the EMBO membership through a
mentorship programme and the annual EMBO Members Workshop. Joint publications
in major scientific journals often result from these collaborative actions.
Creating
awareness of the status of individual scientists through
sponsorship of special young investigator lectures at scientific events,
publication of a brochure highlighting the scientists’ research
and an invitation to write reviews for EMBO reports.
Organising
an annual EMBO Young Investigator Symposium for the scientific community
to facilitate interactive discussion of techniques or methods identified
by EMBO young investigators.
